Book 283, Thousands of Dharmma Vessels
*********************************************************
This book was authored in response to the raging COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, which resulted in more than a million deaths every day. During this period, the author compassionately delivered deceased spirits on a daily basis.
In the ocean of suffering, who is saved by the Dharma vessels?
Is it me who looks around blankly, failing to see the other shore?
Or is it you who are bewildered, caught up in the cycle of samsara?
The Dharma King said:
“Suffering” is experience.
“Emptiness” is truth.
“Impermanence” is true reality.
“Non-self” is the summary.
The flavor of Buddhadharma awakens you and me.
How fortunate that you and I can be saved...

Book 300, Return to the Rivers of Stars
*****************************************************
"Do you want to attain the great perfection of Buddha-nature? Do you want to follow in the footsteps of the Dharma King and return to the realm of the Milky Way?
If you do, the Dharma King says you must first 'focus your mind in one place.'
How does one tame the deluded mind? How does one escape suffering? How does one attain liberation?
This book provides the answers."

Dzogchen, The Nine Stages of the Great Perfection
******************************************************************
Just as Mount Everest is the highest summit on earth, the Great Perfection teachings are the pinnacle of Vajrayana.
From June 2, 2013 to May 28, 2016, following weekly homa ceremonies and group cultivation sessions, Living Buddha Lian-sheng, Sheng-Yen Lu, discoursed the Great Perfection. This first volume contains discourses 1-23 of this series. In his teachings, Grandmaster explains the meaning of the outer three stages, the inner three stages, and the supreme three stages. Collectively, these stages represent the nine-stage practice of the Nyingma School. These nine stages encompass the entirety of the Vajrayana teachings. In his discourses, Grandmaster explains profound concepts such as trekcho and togal, thus providing a rarely encountered and extremely valuable introduction to the Great Perfection.
Rich with personal anecdotes and lucid insights, and infused with Grandmaster’s light-hearted humor, this collection of teachings is a priceless gift of compassion and wisdom, and a great blessing from H.H. Living Buddha Lian-sheng to sentient beings.
